DG going to get cute in the draft?


Recommended Posts

I think it is more likely that we use a 4th or 5th to move up in the second with one of the 2 picks we have there.

If a great player that we have graded as a first rounder drops out of the round and is sitting there at pick 50 or so, then we might move from the bottom of round 2 up to 50 to get him

I find this more tangible than using both 2nds to get back into the first, at least at the moment

I don't like how Gettleman has made a new normal of trading up to grab a player. The cost is to high, especially in such a deep draft class as this one. We traded up for Williams, Benwikere and Funchess, and so far these trades has not been very successful. We also traded for Worley who showed some promise last season, but too early to tell. Gettleman has now orchestrated four drafts for...

We'll have to see what happens. There's always some unexpected things that happen every draft. Maybe a Corey Davis or Derek Barnett or O.J. Howard slip into the mid-20s. Still opposed to using both of those 2nds to go get one of those guys?

I wouldn't mind that as much as I would trading the 8, 2nd round, and more to move to 3.    But how about he sits back and not get all anxious this one time in a deep draft.

Bene and Williams were 5th round picks. For 5th rounders I'd call those good picks. Not gonna find many Josh Norman's in the 5th round. We got some good play out of Bene before he shattered his leg and Williams is probably penciled in to start at RT.

The only one of those trades I have a problem with is the move to get Funchess and I didn't like it at the time either.

Moving to #3 is probably out of the question. That would almost certainly have to involve next year's 1st and that's not going to happen. I don't see us moving up from #8. It's very costly to move up at the top of the draft.

We traded up to the top of the 3rd to get Williams

I'm already satisfied with the squad we've got going into the year.

If we manage to get an impact player in the first and solid contributors after that... well hot damn.

No i disagree,, I would like to have some young talent for the future..

    • Someone correct me- doesn't Dave have a six year contract??? I think Dan Morgan does as well..... that's the price you have to pay once you get a rep for firing HCs....  
    • Brother re-check that guarantee...my page shows 30mill.....thats means he's staying in my book for at least til the end of 2026.  Im going to be my normal honest self, besides watching like half of the SB, I didn't know the guy. My guess is Panthers have a "planned model of paying players" and they almost had to spend a chunk of space on a DLman after Dbrown injury season gave them a nightmare out-come of worst D in NFL scoring. Once Milton got above Dbrown payments, they went with the plan B. A player whom the "co-GM" put his name with. Brad said turk would not be a problem off-field and leader, which the Panthers need badly. I dug in with the google-fu, I found out  I also found him playing lots of NT, which was shocking given the small frame. He seems ready for a bigger role and had a great SB too. IDK, I feel Dan Morgan was dead set on not going into this season without more DL depth and its there. The real deal is this, nearly all FA take one year to "adjust". I think turk is trying too hard and causing injuries as a result for his contract. Dbrown called turk "strong as hell" and I know for a fact Dbrowns has insane core and strength numbers. They lift together with the 50 LB difference...... you always lift with a guy who's similar in strength cause you can leave on the 8 wheels, let the other guy lift while you rest and go after him.  I do wish he had a better beginning to his panther career, 3 games for him to do so and it would cover up the low points if he made a few plays.... Again it felt like they almost had to make move/spend $$$ and Morgan was going to have DL depth this season no matter what...My best guess.
